Ok so for a few days now its been raining pretty hard around here at night, i usually drive during the day so i cant see where the water is coming in from but i dry up the carpet over in the passenger side and the next day is soaked in water again, so i have to do this at least 2 times a day so it wont rotten the carpet, i peeled the carpet back as much as possible to dry it and also to find were it was coming from but no luck i pored almost 2 gallon of water but non of it came in. so i was hoping you guys might have any ideas of where to check next. also all the wire connections under the carpet are all dry the water doesnt be to be happening any where around them.

Where did you try pouring the water? You often must use a garden hose to actually simulate rain in order to locate leaks like this.
Does the truck have a sunroof? How are the door hinge pins on the passenger front & rear doors?

no it doesnt have a sunroof, this is happening at the front passenger side, and the two front hinge pins are due for replacement. but the thing is that its only getting wet at the carpet, the seat is dry the door panel is dry, its going to rain again tonight so ill try to stay in the truck and see if i see any water coming in.
and thanks for the reply
and thanks for the reply

Water wouldn't necessarily drip on the seat. I would replace the hinge pins and see if the problem persists.
